Welcome to Chiquita Fruit Ingredients
Bananas, Pineapple, Mango, Papaya or Passion Fruit any way you want them…
Chiquita’s Fruit Ingredients division offers more than 250 fruit ingredient products in a wide variety of packaging types and sizes. We have frozen or aseptically packaged bananas, pineapple, mango, papaya or passion fruit – and a host of other products – like our concentrates, juices, extracts, essences, powders and flakes. We offer a wide variety of organic products as well. Chiquita always begins with fresh, ripe fruit contributing to safe natural ingredients that enhance your applications.
Beverage, bakery, dairy, baby food and fruit compounds are some of the most practical applications of our natural fruit ingredients. Our ingredients can be found in almost every aisle of the grocery store! Because consumers are encouraged to consume five or more daily servings of fruits as part of a healthy diet, applications of fruit ingredients make perfect sense. Whether in frozen or aseptically packaged format, the Chiquita fruit ingredients infuse foods with both zest and sustenance, so consumers can get the flavor they crave without compromising the nutrition that keeps them healthy and energized.
No matter what you’re making, Chiquita makes it better! |

Fruits:
Diets rich in fruits may reduce the risk of some type of cancer and other chronic diseases.
Frozen Fruits:
Frozen fruits are nutritionally the same as raw fruits so they likely have the same inherent beneficial effect as the raw fruits.
Processed Fruits:
Processed Fruits retain most of their nutrient, fiber and phytonutrient value.
